All About Essential Oils

Essential oils have been used for thousands of years for cosmetic purposes, as well as for their spiritually and emotionally uplifting properties. Young Living has always been at the forefront of bringing this ancient tradition to modern users, introducing millions to a total mind/body wellness they may never have dreamed possible.
Primarily extracted through careful steam distillation but also through cold pressing, the purest essential oils are far more powerful than the botanicals from which they were extracted. Any time you hold a bottle of our powerful essential oils, you are holding nature's pure essence.

Best way to get started

If you’re not sure where to start when it comes to essential oils, you are not alone! It can be hard to know where to begin. There are so many options available, which sometimes makes it difficult to know which oils to choose and how to use them. Luckily, Young Living took the guesswork out of it and created the Premium Starter Kit.

The Premium Starter Kits are the best (and most cost effective) way to get started on this journey. An extraordinary value, they are for those who are serious about transforming their lives but don’t know where to start. They are packed full of information, contain the most commonly used oils, and include plenty of extras -- everything you need to jump right into the world of essential oils and successfully get started on the road to health and wellness.

Each of the Premium Starter Kits comes with the Premium Essential Oils Collection. Consider this your personal arsenal -- with these most common oils on hand, you’ll be ready for anything that comes your way:

Because all of those oils and samples aren’t enough, you also get to choose a diffuser with your Premium Starter Kit! Young Living diffusers utilize ultrasonic technology that breaks down any mixture of essential oils and water into millions of microparticles and releases them into the air in a fine vapor mist. Since this process does not heat the essential oils, it preserves and activates the plant constituents found within them while diffusing, delivering all the benefits of the essential oils directly into your home or workplace!

When ordering your Premium Starter Kit, there are four amazing options of ultrasonic diffusers, so you are able to choose which one best suits your needs:

Aria ($260)

The Aria is a stylish diffuser made of solid American maple with a glass dome. It is beautiful, and is coveted by many! It offers multiple time settings, automatic shut-off, multicolored LED settings, and a matching remote. The Aria’s soothing built-in music or the auxiliary audio port makes it a great companion for your yoga practice or for a relaxing bath. Read more about the Aria here.

Rainstone ($205)

The Rainstone is sleek, easy to use, and handmade by trained ceramic artisans. If you fancy dragon eggs, this one is definitely for you! The Rainstone boasts five different time settings--use the included remote to select 1, 2, 3, 6, or 8 hours of continuous diffusion with automatic shutoff, soft LED light settings, as well as negative ionizer settings. With a modern design, it matches any minimalist home or office decor. Read more about the Rainstone here.

Home Diffuser ($160)

The Home Diffuser features a beautiful rose-inspired design and can help transform any space into a spa-like atmosphere.
